s 16136 CONGRESSIONAL RECORD- ~ENATE ner-emuel' 9, 1.9fJ!J
Mr. MANSFIELD Mr President. JUSt
as the "pushers" are the ones most responsible
for and. therefore. the most
b'Uilty in the tra.ffi< of narcotics so is
the · pusher'' who distributes pornoaraphic
material through the mails the
:'nost responsible and the most guilty in
that area.
It is not a questwn so much of being
the r ecipient of narcotics or pornographic
materials. althou~h that is a
vital question. but rather. it is more a
question of how we must deal with those
who have the primary responsibility. In
that respect. I am glad to note, very glad
to note, that the Judinary Committee of
yesterda:r reported out a narcotics control
bill which the Senate may be assured
will be called up for action as expeditiously
as possible
I am today mtrodunng a bill dealing

Effective State Standards for U.S. History: A 2003 Report Card
September 22, 2003
Sheldon M. Stern
Is there any subject as disheveled, distorted and dysfunctional as social studies? As part of our continuing effort to revitalize the subject of social studies, the Thomas B. Fordham Institute offers Effective State Standards for U.S. History: A 2003 Report Card. This groundbreaking and comprehensive state-by-state analysis of K-12 education standards in U.S. history was prepared by Sheldon Stern, historian at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston for more than 20 years. It evaluates U.S. history standards in 48 states and the District of Columbia on comprehensive historical content, sequential development, and balance.

Where Did Social Studies Go Wrong?
August 01, 2003
Kathleen Porter-Magee
James Leming
Lucien Ellington
This new report from the Thomas B. Fordham Foundation consists of penetrating critiques by renegade social studies educators who fault the regnant teaching methods and curricular ideas of their field and suggest how it can be reformed. While nearly everyone recognizes that American students don't know much about history and civics, these analysts probe the causes of this ignorance-and lay primary responsibility at the feet of the social studies 'establishment' to which they belong.

Six Questions to Ask on Back to School Night

A good, well-organized social studies curriculum seeks to teach students the key events, issues, and people in America's past, how our government works, our rights and responsibilities as citizens, and how our predecessors fought to defend democracy. How can parents tell whether their children are getting such a curriculum in school?one that is rich in historical content and provides a solid base for future learning? The Thomas B. Fordham Foundation suggests asking teachers and principals these six questions on back to school night.

Rebecca Gau
Louann Bierlein Palmer
This new report by the Thomas B. Fordham Institute is the first significant study of the organizations that authorize charter schools.

Better Leaders for America's Schools: A Manifesto
May 01, 2003
This report, published jointly by the Fordham Institute and The Broad Foundation, contends that American public education faces a 'crisis in leadership' that cannot be alleviated from traditional sources of school principals and superintendents. Its signers do not believe this crisis can be fixed by conventional strategies for preparing, certifying and employing education leaders. Instead, they urge that first-rate leaders be sought outside the education field, earn salaries on par with their peers in other professions, and gain new authority over school staffing, operations and budgets.

The Best of Both Worlds: Blending History and Geography in the K-12 Curriculum
February 01, 2003
David W. Saxe
David J. Rutherford
Richard G. Boehm
Geography plays a crucial role in shaping history, and the study of history provides an important context for students learning geography, but teachers rarely take advantage of the complementary nature of these subjects. This report shows how the study of U.S. history can be enriched by blending geography into the curriculum. The centerpiece is an innovative curriculum framework in which each historical period is supplemented and enriched by the introduction of relevant geography.

Can Failing Schools be Fixed?
January 01, 2003
Ronald C. Brady
Will the sanctions for failing schools laid out in the politics-governance Act (NCLB) succeed in turning those schools around? This report draws on the results of previous efforts to overhaul failing schools to provide a glimpse at what may be expected from NCLB-style interventions. The results: no intervention strategy has a success rate greater than 50%, so policymakers are urged to consider additional options for children trapped in failing schools.

Dayton Charter School Assessment Report 2001-2002
September 05, 2002
Gregory J. Cizek
This report presents a summary of the administration and results of annual pre- and post-testing of pupils enrolled in charter schools in Dayton and Springfield, Ohio during the 2001-2002 school year. The assessment activities were a project of the Education Resource Center of the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce (DACC). The efforts of the DACC were supported in part via philanthropic gifts from the Thomas B. Fordham Foundation and other sources. The primary purposes of the assessment project were: 1) to help classroom teachers monitor individual student achievement and adapt instruction to promote learning; 2) to provide data for schools to assist them in gauging and improving their overall effectiveness; and 3) to foster public accountability and model the use of data to inform educational decision making.

Portland >Lodging > Palms Motel
3801 North Interstate Ave., Portland, OR | Directions 9722745.550266 -122.681193
Mon. - Sun. 24 Hours
Neighborhoods: North Portland Neighborhood Services, Overlook
Only in an emergency would I stay here again – The Palms Hotel is not quite a dump, but it is either on its way there or coming slowly back from something worse. It seems a lot has changed since the previous two reviewers stayed here. We had a convention in town and wanted to be reasonably close to the Rose Center, but virtually all hotels nearer were full.
-- They lost our reservation. I called two days beforehand to confirm. The night clerk checked and said we did not have a reservation. I called back in the morning and another clerk found my reservation. I later wished I hadn't called back.
-- The shower rod was broken, and curved down and towards the floor, meaning we could not effectively close the shower curtain.
-- Want to open your toilet kit? The pedestal washstand leaves you only the back of the toilet.
-- There was no place to hang any clothing, not even a hook on the back of the bathroom door, meaning my suit and slacks were draped over a chair. I hung my shirts from edge of the TV cabinet.
-- The old fashioned tiny refrig/freezer had started to defrost, leaving a cold, wet puddle at the base of the entertainment center/dresser that held the refrigerator. We used all our thin, cheap towels to mop up the mess. Not even an apology from management when I brought it to their attention, though they did give me new towels I asked for.
-- Don't expect maid service. Our room was never touched during our Friday morning to Sunday morning stay. Wet towels from the defrosting freezer sat on the bathroom floor for two days.
-- When we arrived at 10:00 a.m., and the two times afterwards during the middle of the day that we visited the office, it was locked. It took 2-3 minutes for someone to answer the bell.
-- Wireless Internet service was intermittent at times.
Interstate Avenue motel offers exotic theme and better-than-average amenities. – The Scene
The sign alone--neon palm trees with a cheeky monkey peering down--is worth a drive past this retro-hip gem. Of all the affordable motels sprinkled up and down Interstate Avenue, this one stands out as a charming and fun destination, loaded with character.
The Details
There are 50 rooms here, each decorated with tropical flair. The amenities are a cut above the basics; rooms are stocked with refrigerators and microwaves. There's an outdoor pool, available during Portland's hot summer months. Those who want a little more action can hop the bus right out front and head for downtown.
High Quality Service with Nice Location – The High Neon Sign says its all at this fabulous Hotel. With such pleasant customer service and beautifull rooms, this hotel is hard to resist. Quiet Rooms with Max Train at its door step, and Downtown minutes away there is nothing more you can ask for. A+ Quality Service says its all.
Excellent Service...Nice and Clean Rooms – I was treated with excellent service and the rooms were incredible at a good price as well. The very nice Neon sign was attractive and grabbed my attention promptly. The employees treated me nicely and gave instant service upon my request. Less than 2 miles from Lyod Center and many other attractions. Recommend this place to everyone and I will be sure to revisit.

EXCLUSIVE: Now that 'Thor' opened strongly around the world, its star Chris Hemsworth is one hot Aussie hunk. He's just closed a deal for the good guy role opposite Twilight Saga starlet Kristen Stewart as the Huntsman in Snow White And The Huntsman which is Universal's version of the fairy tale. Newcomer Hemsworth and his good looks allowed for heavy PR to drum up appeal for Thor among women with his shirtless clip a popular choice for talk shows with large female audiences. He's repped by IFA talent management and ROAR management partner and co-founder William Ward who talent-spotted Chris during one of the manager's many scouting trips to Australia. Ward brought him to Los Angeles and really put him out there to casting directors and production executives. Chris read for the part of Thor but wasn't given a test because a casting director had nixed him early on. Chris' younger brother Liam (who's also a ROAR client) then tested for the role of Thor, but Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige passed. Then, after a conversation with Ward ("You've got to reconsider Chris, he's your guy"), Feige decided to let Chris read again. And once Marvel put him on tape, it was "Oh my god". Hemsworth is in Joss Whedon's UA-orphaned Cabin In The Woods which just got picked up by Lionsgate, is the lead in that Red Dawn remake, and played "George Kirk" in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek reboot. Down under, he played "Kim Hyde" on 171 episodes of Home and Away, the successful Oz TV series where Heath Ledger started.
Mighty Thor Chris Hemsworth To Star Opposite Kristen Stewart: Closes 'Huntsman' Role In Snow White Saga
Comment by Jamie — Friday May 13, 2011 @ 7:15pm PDT
So far I've only see him in Thor and Star Trek, and he was really good in both roles. Not excited for this Huntsmen movie, but am excited to hopefully see him in a lot more later.
Comment by Jamie — Friday May 13, 2011 @ 7:49pm PDT
I am so excited for this Snow White!!!
Ahhhh!!! hottie/charismatic Chris.H is joining 'Snow white and The Huntsman'
I actually enjoyed 'Thor' and look forward to seeing him on-screen with the rest of the awesome cast…
Thank you Nikki, I can always count on you!!
Comment by lol — Friday May 13, 2011 @ 7:54pm PDT
from viggo to chris? is this going to be the second snow white movie or the first?
Comment by ridiculous — Friday May 13, 2011 @ 8:11pm PDT
Chris Hemsworth has the talent, the looks ( looks like a young Brad Pitt) , machismo , sex appeal, and the charisma . Why would he sign on to a cheesy Snow White film ( that is already competing with another Snow White film ) ? Why would he want to deal with the incredibly awkward , very nervous, and the laughable acting of Kristen Stewart ? I am sure after the enormous box -office and critical success of ' Thor ', he has his pick of great scripts with solid directors and talented actors attached. This was not a good move on Hemsworth's part.
Comment by Jenny Campos — Wednesday May 18, 2011 @ 4:46pm PDT
What is this about Kirsten Stewart's awkward, nervous and laughable acting? Or is it that Hollywood is not ready for her incredibly naturalistic acting style? In Twilight you could almost hear her thinking, it was unnerving to watch, she came across as a real teenager confronted by these terrible events, not a rehearsed actress emoting for the cameras… and it was she who anchored that movie, not Pattinson…She should have a lot of chemistry with both Hemsworth and Claflin, because she is so genuine. Never underestimate her, she is one of our great actresses…
Comment by Penn — Saturday May 14, 2011 @ 12:08am PDT
I can certainly see Chris Hemsworth rocking in the huntsman gear. Now, they've only got to make sure they have a good script.
Comment by john — Saturday May 14, 2011 @ 4:04am PDT
He was great in Thor and he is quite possibly the most attractive man to ever walk the Earth, i think he will have a wonderful career.
Comment by Brook Lynn — Saturday May 14, 2011 @ 5:25am PDT
This is a huge coup for Universal. It makes there far more attractive project shine brighter than Reativity. Wonder if the Reativity version should just close shop
Comment by Dan — Saturday May 14, 2011 @ 7:26am PDT
Wow, that's an amazing cast. The girl from twilight, guy from Thor, guy from pirates, and Charlize who's in Prometheus.

Fatu teamed with his cousin Samu, the son of Afa, as The Samoan Swat Team. The Swat Team wrestled mainly in the south, winning titles in the Dallas-based World Class Wrestling Association. The team later worked for the World Wrestling Federation as the Headshrinkers, before Solofa Fatu, Jr. embarked on a singles career.

Vt. revenues up in most categories in JanuaryFebruary 16,2013MONTPELIER New figures show that Vermont state revenues were up in most categories last month, coming in slightly ahead of projections.
In the results released Thursday, Administration Secretary Jeb Spaulding said January was a good month for the state treasury.
General Fund revenues in January were $2.3 million, or 1.6 percent, above forecasts. Seven months into the current fiscal year that ends June 30, general fund revenues total $750 million, three-tenths of one percent above the target figure.
The non-dedicated transportation fund receipts in January exceeded forecasts by about three-quarters of one percent. Year-to-date the fund is about one-tenth of one percent above target.
But the non-property tax education fund receipts for January were about one-tenth of one percent below expectations. For the year, the fund is just below even.MORE IN This Just InStaff Report Full StoryStaff Report Full StoryThe Associated Press Full Story

She was thrilled with it, and after seeing the photo of it she sent, I could see why. It was beautiful!
Thanks for providing a lovely product at a reasonable price.

Bought for my bosses as a thank you for all if the generosity they showed after my grandmother passed. Almost a week and a half later the flowers were still beautiful and in full bloom.

great flowers March 12, 2013
my girlfriend loved them!!!
Simple elegance January 5, 2013
I did not see the flowers but my son and daughter in law said they were beautiful. She had just that early morning had given birth 14 weeks early. I wanted to send her something that would be beautiful, elegant and not overdone. This arrangement immediately caught my eye. Lilies always remind me of the wonderful resurrection of the Lord Jesus and when I see roses, I think of the Rose of Sharon. It was delivered very quickly which was important to me as I could not be there with them.
Good daughter

It was really pleasant experience, and I'll definitely come back to GiftTree and shop again. Thanks!

The Promise of Cancer Research
Research on Prevention
Research on Screening and Diagnosis
Research on Treatment
Doctors all over the country are conducting many types of clinical trials (research studies in which people volunteer to take part). Doctors are studying new ways to prevent, detect, and treat colorectal cancer.
Clinical trials are designed to answer important questions and to find out whether the new approach is safe and effective. Research already has led to advances, and researchers continue to search for more effective approaches.
People who join clinical trials may be among the first to benefit if a new approach is shown to be effective. And if participants do not benefit directly, they may still make an important contribution to medicine by helping doctors learn more about the disease and how to control it. Although clinical trials may pose some risks, researchers do all they can to protect their patients.
If you are interested in being part of a clinical trial, talk with your doctor. You may want to read the NCI booklet Taking Part in Cancer Treatment Research Studies. It explains how clinical trials are carried out and explains their possible benefits and risks.
NCI's Web site includes a section on clinical trials at http://www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials with general information about clinical trials as well as detailed information about specific ongoing studies of colorectal cancer. The Cancer Information Service at 1-800-4-CANCER or at LiveHelp (https://livehelp.cancer.gov) can answer questions and provide information about clinical trials.
Research on Prevention
Research is being done to test whether certain dietary supplements or drugs may help prevent colorectal cancer. For example, researchers across the country are studying vitamin D and calcium supplements, selenium supplements, and the drug celecoxib, in people with polyps.
Research on Screening and Diagnosis
Scientists are testing new ways to check for polyps and colorectal cancer. NCI-supported researchers are studying virtual colonoscopy. This is a CT scan of the colon. It makes x-ray pictures of the inside of the colon.
Research on Treatment
Researchers are studying chemotherapy and biological therapy. They are studying new drugs, new combinations, and different doses. In addition, researchers are looking at ways to lessen the side effects of treatment.

...that deal with pure data
You are not logged in.
i'm new to externals programming and tried out the examples from the pd-externals-HOWTO.pdf at (http://iem.at/pd/externals-HOWTO/). everything worked, except the pan~ example...
everything complies, but if i try to put an "test~" (renamed from pan~ because there already exists a pan~ object in PD-extended) object, it doesn't work:
... couldn't create
i tried out several variations, but the result stays the same.... has anyone a clue how to fix this, or can someone provide a very basic signal example for an external to me?
the file has to be "test~.pd_linux" (with extension according to OS) with a symbol "test_tilde_setup" exported from it, and the file has to be in pd's path. I'm guessing it's just a symbol naming issue (would be simpler if there was just "setup" instead of having to guess which name pd would look for, but i guess that's not going to change soon!)
EDIT: oh, and the file has to declare a class called "test~" otherwise the code will load and be executed, but pd won't be able to create the object...
try "pd -verbose" to see where it looks in more detail, in any case

oh thanks very much! i thought, i can complile more than one pd-object into the same external... so now i know, that there must be one external named equal to the object that it contains, right?!
greetings, -vlp-
Almost: Pd takes the name of the object and runs the matching setup function in the file that matches that name. You can use the -lib flag to specify the name to use instead of having to create an object, which is useful for multi-object externals (which don't in fact absolutely need to register an object for the file name as far as I know, but it's often there).
Something like this you mean. Right click the sliders -> properties to check out their names.

U.S. Set for Epic Match Against Sweden at 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup
Sep 13, 2007
2007 FIFA Women's World Cup
Chengdu, China
Sept. 13, 2007
USA SET FOR EPIC MATCH AGAINST SWEDEN AT 2007 FIFA WOMEN'S WORLD CUP: The U.S. Women's World Cup Team has spent the last two days resting and recovering from the intense battle with North Korea and is ready for its important Group B match with Sweden on Friday, Sept. 14 at 5 p.m. local (4:55 a.m. live on ESPN). With both Group B games ending in ties last Tuesday, the second set of matches will go a long way in determining quarterfinal berths. While Chengdu could get some rain on Thursday night, the forecast for game day actually includes sun and very little chance of showers. This means the conditions will probably not be as sloppy as they were for the North Korea match when a steady rain pelted the players for the final 70 minutes of the game. Any doubts about Group B being the most difficult in the tournament were dispelled after the first found of games in all four groups. Group B was the only group that did not feature a blowout and two of the three ties in the first eight games came from the USA's group. Thursday, Sept. 13, was a rest day for the tournament, with no games, but Groups A and B return to action tomorrow as the USA's clash with Sweden hilghlights the four games scheduled.

USA vs. SWEDEN PREVIEW: The last two matches between the USA and Sweden have ended with 3-2 victories for the USA, the first of those in July of 2006 in Blaine, Minn. and the most recent last March at the Algarve Cup in Portugal. The USA never trailed in either game, and in both answered a Sweden goal with a U.S. goal just a minute later. Sweden needed just a tie in the Algarve Cup match to make the championship game, but the USA came away with the big win after going up 2-0 before halftime. Both teams will be highly motivated coming into this match after drawing their respective openers and both squards are well aware of the ramifications of this result. The USA and Sweden match up extremely well, with athletic players all over the field. Both teams have powerful goalkeepers with excellent kicking games, but Sweden's Hedvig Lindhal will be playing in just her 23rd game for Sweden, taking over the No. 1 jersey after an injury to long-time starter Caroline Jonsson just before the Women's World Cup. Both teams have veteran players in key positions, and in fact, Sweden has five players on the roster with more than 100 caps. The USA has six, and another vet, Abby Wambach will be playing in her 98th career match. Both teams have plenty of attacking firepower, Sweden with its dynamic duo of Hanna Ljungberg (71 international goals) and Victoria Svensson (59 goals) while the USA answers with Kristine Lilly (126 goals) and Abby Wambach (78). The match may hinge on the finishing of those four. Svensson was one of the best players at the 2003 FIFA Women's World Cup, winning the Silver Ball as the tournament's second best player, and her speed and clinical finishing ability make her a constant danger. Sweden's new attacking star is forward Lotta Schelin. The 23-year-old winger was Sweden's Female Player of the Year in 2006, is six-feet tall, has speed and loves to run at players. Midfielders Therese Sjogran and Caroline Seger are both large in stature and powerful runners, meaning the USA will have a physical battle in midfield while the shorter and quicker Llungberg and Svensson will try to test the speedy U.S. back line. Veteran central defender Hanna Marklund anchors the Swedish back line, but she may have some younger players around her. The U.S. has had success against Sweden, going 14-3-5 in the all-time series, perhaps due to a bit more speed and quickness all over the field, something the Americans will be looking to exploit against the powerful and gritty Swedes. This will be the USA's third-ever meeting with Sweden in a Women's World Cup after opening the 1991 and 2003 tournaments against them.

Fast Facts: Sweden is ranked third in the world, but comes into the tournament perhaps playing as well as any of the European powers, finishing third in the prestigious Algarve Cup the past two years … Sweden lost to Germany on a "golden goal" in the Final of the 2003 FIFA Women's World Cup in a match that could have gone either way … Sweden's Thomas Dennerby took over from long-time Sweden head coach Marika Domanski-Lyfors, who is coaching host China in the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup … Sweden has one of the world's best strikers in powder keg forward Hanna Ljungberg, so popular in Sweden that after the 2003 Women's World Cup she got her own stamp (along with teammate Victoria Svensson), but struggled with injuries heading into the WWC … She is healthy now and will be paired with Svensson to form a potent pair of forwards … Sweden was the first-ever opponent for the USA in a Women's World Cup as the teams squared off in the opening match of the 1991 Women's World Cup, a 3-2 U.S. win … While Sweden has participated in all five Women's World Cup tournaments so far, they did not meet the USA again until the opening game of the 2003 Women's World Cup, this time a 3-1 U.S. victory … Sweden has never failed to advance out of the first-round of a Women's World Cup, despite failing to win its first Women's World Cup match in all five previous tournaments … Sweden's tie with Nigeria in the opening game of this tournament was its first draw after losing four straight WWC openers.
U.S. WNT Quote Sheet
U.S. head coach GREG RYAN
On playing two extremely difficult games to start the tournament:
"I think this group is like playing a semifinal and a final in our first two games. That's the quality of the teams. North Korea is fantastic and Sweden was in the final game of the last World Cup. We got Greece in the Olympics in our first game, so this start is unbelievably challenging."
On what will be the deciding factor against Sweden:
"Usually it's the big players that decide games. Not always, but now it's a question of 'can the USA's top players create that advantage for the U.S.? Can Sweden's top players create the advantage?' Then, as we all know, set plays win championship games and tomorrow is like that kind of game."
U.S. forward LINDSAY TARPLEY
On being on the bench for the USA vs. North Korea game:
"My role constantly changes, and whatever I can do to help the team is what I'm going to do. I was pretty nervous on the sideline, but I was warming up if I needed to go in and I was going to be ready. It will be the same for tomorrow's game."
On the mood of the team after the first game:
"It's been really interesting. We have really relied on each other and I think that is what being a good team is all about. Like I said before, you're going to face bumps in the road and it's how you fight together and come back from it. We tied, it was a great game and we're excited about being successful in the rest of the tournament."
U.S. midfielder SHANNON BOXX
On playing the second game of the WWC:
"We're very excited about it. We're ready to get back out there. We got a draw, but this game is very important to us and we have to go out and we have to win. Both teams are very good sides and it's going to be an exciting game. We're both great in the air, so you are going to see a battle there. I think the biggest thing is that it's going to be an up and down game. We are going to defend, but we're going to get forward and so are they."
On the contrasting styles between Sweden and North Korea:
"I think that the two teams are very different. Sweden is very good in the air and very strong, where maybe the North Koreans were very quick on the ball. We're still going to play our game and that is the focus: what we do well, how have we played in the past, and our style is going forward, being aggressive and putting the other team on their heels, and that was the same even for the North Korea game. They are two very different teams, but in the end we are focusing on what we need to do to score goals."
U.S. WNT Quick Hits
- Six players made their Women's World Cup debuts against North Korea, goalkeeper Hope Solo, defender Stephanie Lopez, midfielders Carli Lloyd and Lori Chalupny, and forwards Heather O'Reilly and Natasha Kai.
- O'Reilly became the 19th U.S. player to score in a Women's World Cup match.
- Solo became just the fourth U.S. goalkeeper to play in a Women's World Cup match.
- Of the 17 Swedish players who played against the USA at the 2007 Algarve Cup, 11 are on Sweden's World Cup Team. All three subs that didn't play in that match are also on the squad.
- Of the 14 U.S. players who faced Sweden at the Algarve Cup, 13 on the Women's World Cup Team. Five of the six subs that didn't play are also on the squad.
- The USA has never played Sweden in Sweden, but have played them four times in China, winning three and tying one.
- Both teams head into the match with one player carrying a yellow card, Christie Rampone for the USA and Therese Sjogran for Sweden. A second yellow card would result in a one-game suspension.
- Of the last four goals scored by Swedish players against the USA, only one was scored by a player on Sweden's Women's World Cup roster, that being Victoria Svensson's goal at the 2007 Algarve Cup.
- The winner of the last five meetings between the two teams (four wins for the USA and one for Sweden) has scored three goals in the match.

THE WOMEN'S WORLD CUP IS ROCKING: The fifth FIFA Women's World Cup has got off to a great start not only in terms of action on the pitch and atmosphere in the stadiums, but the also in TV audience. The opening match rout by Germany over Argentina was watched by 2.5 million fans in Germany, matching that of a major Champions League match. In Japan, the improbably 2-2 draw with England attained almost 20% market share on Fuji TV. Sweden has a very large media contingent in China, and those numbers were backed up by a market share of 56.8% on TV4 for Sweden's opening match draw against Nigeria. For fans not able to catch all the games live on ESPN or ESPN2 back in the USA, FIFA.com is making free highlight packages available for all the matches.
CHINA COMES OUT TO WATCH: So far, the crowds have been excellent for the first eight matches of the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup, with every crowd more than 20,000 fans, most closer to 30,000 and China leading the way with a massive crowd of over 50,000 in Wuhan to watch the dramatic last minute 3-2 win over Denmark.
Stat of Note
The USA and Sweden are two of eight teams that have competed in all five Women's World Cup tournaments. The others are Norway, Germany, China, Brazil, Japan and Nigeria.

Help for Bathing a Cat
It is usually not necessary to bathe cats as a large part of their day is spent grooming themselves. They also hate water and are bound to put up quite a fight! Cats clean themselves with their barbed or coarse tongue, cleaning and licking dirt off their skin to remain clean. Very often cats do become quite dirty, especially if they have had a romp in the mud.
The fur of long-haired cats also becomes quite oily and occasionally they may need a bath. It is generally recommended that a cat bath be given two or three times per year. Excessive cat cleaning strips the natural oils from the skin that are essential for a healthy coat.
There are precautions you should consider for the best way how to give a cat a bath. Avoid using medicated shampoos as they can be too harsh for the cat's skin – cats are always licking their coats and can easily ingest these chemical based ingredients. Remember to be patient and gentle when bathing your cat, and if all else fails, take him to a grooming parlor.
Natural Remedies
Natural remedies also provide a gentler alternative to cleansing and conditioning your cat's skin and coat. Unlike conventional over-counter products for cat grooming
that contain harsh chemicals, herbal shampoos do not contain irritating ingredients.
Carefully selected herbs such as Chamomile, Nettle, Cleavers, and Catnip soothes and cleans the skin without stripping natural oils, resulting in a gentle and safe wash for your cat.

Cruise operator Royal Caribbean scouts for consumer agencies
The world's second-biggest cruise ship operator is on the lookout for comms help as the industry seeks to move on from the Costa Concordia disaster.
According to one source, the review follows the operator's recent efforts to 'move towards being a more consumer-facing brand'.
The cruise company posted global losses of $393m (£257m) in Q4 last year. A statement issued following the results pointed to challenges in Europe and identified the Costa Concordia tragedy as a factor because of its ongoing impact on cruise demand.
The Costa Concordia, which is owned by separate company Carnival Cruises, ran aground off the Italian coast in January 2012, killing 32 people.
Incumbent retained agency Siren PR is participating in the Royal Caribbean International pitch, which is being handled by Creativebrief.
A Royal Caribbean International spokeswoman said: 'Royal Caribbean International is known for innovation, industry firsts and big ideas, and we want to continue to differentiate within the travel sector.'

Don Dolphin's view of Monday's practice round action at the U.S. Senior Open was a bit obstructed.
Behind the leader board at the 17th green, the retiree from Indianapolis stood on a raised platform and opened small metal doors on the board, carefully attaching magnetic letters before closing them again.
"Give me a B-L-A-K-E, Bob," he shouted to another volunteer. Bob Rainer, a retired UPS driver from Pender, Neb., searched through neatly stacked piles of magnets to find the right letters and consulted a program to double-check the spelling of players' names.
Up on the metal platform, with the temperatures rising into the upper 80s and the air still and humid, the job was hot, repetitive and not exactly glamorous. And for their trouble, the men won't be paid; in fact, they each shelled out $125 for the privilege.
But both said they were excited to be a part of the weeklong tournament — as is the rest of the army of nearly 3,000 volunteers who signed up to do everything from directing traffic to shushing spectators on the course.
The call for volunteers from tournament organizers was answered loudly and quickly, mostly by locals.
About 80 percent of the championship volunteers are from Omaha, Lincoln and other surrounding communities.
|See hole illustrations, insight from course pros, photos and video from every hole and more in our Senior Open course guide.
John Jacobsen, a retired deputy director of the Nebraska Department of Roads, said he read about the search for volunteers in the newspaper and figured he couldn't pass up a "once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." He'll be spending part of the week as the hole marshal at No. 6, handling crowd control and answering questions, among other duties. He's looking forward to the work, and the chance to see players like Fred Funk and Fred Couples in action.
"It's an opportunity to get inside the ropes," he said.
Plus, Jacobsen said, lounging in a cushy leather chair inside the air-conditioned volunteer tent, the job does come with other perks.
In exchange for $125 and a commitment to work four shifts, each lasting four hours, volunteers receive a pass to every day of the event (which would otherwise cost $150). They get United States Golf Association polo shirts, hats and water bottles. While they're working, volunteers get meals in a tent that has a pool table and few massage tables.
Many of the volunteers are retirees. Some are people who opted to spend vacation time at the tournament. Several of the youngest volunteers are teenagers who typically spend their summer days at the Omaha Country Club, working as caddies.
This week, those caddies are out in force, selling programs. The money they make will go into a caddies' scholarship fund that some, including 19-year-old John Powers, have already used to help pay for college.
Powers, who has spent six summers as a caddy, said he's been excited to see the course transform for the tournament and he's happy to help.
"It's a way to give back," he said.
For some of the out-of-town volunteers, Omaha is just one stop on a busy summer schedule of golf tournaments.
Dolphin said he and his wife started volunteering with the USGA when they retired eight years ago. Now they go to at least a couple each year, picking destinations where they can get in some sightseeing. In Omaha, they're hoping to visit the Henry Doorly Zoo and Boys Town.
Kathy Wood, of Ogallala, Neb., got interested in golf after she retired from a data processing job at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. She volunteered at a tournament in Lincoln and got hooked. Next month, she'll head to Colorado to pitch in at an event on the LPGA tour.
"It's just seeing all the people and the players," she said. "You can see them on TV, but it doesn't do it justice."

Center: Max Unger (first team), Maurkice Pouncey Mike Pouncey, Maurkice's brother on the Miami Dolphins, was overlooked here. Unger is a worthy choice for a sneaky good Seattle offensive line. Also: No Jeff Saturday.Our boy never get's a brake................
That's awesome. Good for him.
Wrong Pouncey :^(
You look at the safeties picked and stat wise Jones has to be in that conversation
they selected the wrong version of Pouncey =(
brandon fields gets no love. good job by wake getting recognized. fields and wake both deserve it
When Death Smiles Upon You the Infantryman smiles back
WVdolphan "Ireland gets it.
And those who also get it, know that Ireland gets it. Those who are clueless are still concerned about cornfed and the running game"
WVDOLPHAN "The last thing this team should be worried about is the OC(offensive corn). When you add it all up, its really a pretty solid OC"
Brandon Fields is the ****ing Rembrandt of punting and I'm mad that he doesn't get the recognition he deserves. I'm dead serious.
I'm here to tell the truth about top secret Air Force project BAR STOOL. Gamma ray radiation from the particle accelerator under Joe Robbie Stadium is real! Get out while you can! This bad football team is just a front for something far more sinister!
I remember people here getting mad cause of the lack of sacks but the pressures/hurries count too. This guy is probably one of the most held defensive ends in the league.


text: It's not bogus for this show. They did have to come up with a process. They had to scan everything... even alternate shots and visually match new edits. As I understand it, there wasn't a good record kept of the edits, so it was very much a manual process. Not quite as simple as editing together a freshly shot episode.

The "vent" does absolutely nothing where you have it.
If the lav drain continued up vertically to a vent, then your toilet would be wet vented through the lav.
The shower would still need a it's own vent in that case.
Good morning,
I am a DIY homeowner and would appreciate any comments about the attached picture in anticipation of cutting concrete for my basement bath remodel/addition. I pasted together sections from a couple of photos to try to show the whole arrangement. Most of the piping is 3" and meets the vent distance requirements that I see in the IRC book. The wet vent arrangement was suggested by my county plumbing inspector.
The slab is 5" thick and I have a basic diamond blade for my circular saw with which to score the surface but will be renting a jackhammer from my local big box store to do the heavy breaking.
The only thing that isn't shown (hidden behind some of the framing) is a downstream 4/4/2 wye drain connection for a nearby kitchenette, just before entry to the pump basin.
Any corrections or recommendations before the demolition begins would be great. Thanks!
-Adam in Atlanta
The "vent" does absolutely nothing where you have it.
If the lav drain continued up vertically to a vent, then your toilet would be wet vented through the lav.
The shower would still need a it's own vent in that case.
Dry fitting PVC is a waste of time. Since PVC pipe and fittings are an interference fit, it is impossible to fully seat the pipe into the fitting "dry". This mean that when you apply the solvent (glue) and insert the pipe into the fitting it will seat and therefore your fitting will be off by something like 1/4" per joint. If you have driven the fitting onto the pipe dry, you will almost certainly have a difficult time getting the joint apart. You should measure and cut as you assemble.
If the fitting is in the ground and it's horizontal, it needs to be a wye fitting.
It's a bit hard to tell from here, but one of them looks like a Santee.
The toilet can be wet vented by the Lav, you could also extend for a end of the line clean out there too.
The sink needs a vent, and the washer needs a vent.
The last time I cut slab, I hired a contractor that came out with his own wet saw.
He wet sawed the cut, and then brought in his heavy sledge and his 60 Pound electric hammer.
The whole thing took an hour with no dust.
He charges a minimum, so I didn't even bother looking at the clock.
It was a screaming deal.
I used to play flag football with him.
I've know the guy a long time,
A funny story he had, and this is going to make you laugh.
A guy calls up, finds out "How much to make a couple of straight cuts, and figures,
"Hey, I can do that!"
He gets a diamond blade for his skill saw to cut his 8" foundation wall.
After a couple of hours, his cut is maybe 2" deep, and waving all over the place. I mean, really crooked.
And then the furnace kicked on, and sucked all the concrete dust downstairs into the cold air return of the furnace.
His next call was to an outfit that does home cleanup.
They had to pull all of the fabric out of the home, and send it out for cleaning.
When you pulled open the drawers, they were filled with dusty clothes reaking of concrete dust.
And then they had to do a furnace duct cleaning.
The cleaning bill was thousands, and they couldn't live there for a while.
And the wall still needed cutting.
So they call up Tydi Concrete Cutting, and he straightens out the cuts with nice straight vertical cuts, ready to build onto.
No dust,
The homeowner was stunned.
It took Tydi Concrete maybe two hours for what he had been working on for a complete day.
That's why I go for someone that has a name like Tydi.
It makes my job so much easier.

Like one of the other posts said, you can't use the sanitary tees laying flat, you have to use wyes, that vent comming off the lav need to be 2in. all the way because it's wet venting the toilet, shower needs a vent and anything that can't be seen needs a vent, depending on where you live you may not be allowed to tie these vents into the vent off your ejector pump; some areas require a dedicated vent with nothing else connected to it.
The "common vent" is completely useless so it makes no difference what kind of fitting you use. The shower drain is not vented, and since the toilet flows past it, it must have its own vent, not one off the 3" main. Running the 3" to the lavatory, and THEN reducing it to 2", has absolutely no benefit since you did not do it in order to install a 3" cleanout at the end of the line.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"everything fit on here. I'm so glad I didn't use David's Bridal or used an expensive calligrapher. The quality of the paper is what I expected from reading the other reviews. Thick paper. Beautiful design. I'd recommend these for any spring wedding."
"I used this great quality card so people would know that my reception is at a different location then the ceremony and it came out beatuiful! It was perfect for the extra info my guests needed."
"The paper was perfect - it had a slight sheen and was a nice weight. I glued 1/4 inch black ribbon to the right of the dotted line and then mounted the invitation on black for an extra nice touch. We ordered the red color and it's lovely. I was worried you wouldn't be able to read the font on the red, but it's fine. I highly recommend these."
"I used WPD for all of my wedding needs: invites, save the dates, RSVP's, etc. and will be ordering my programs/menu cards very shortly. I love how WPD helps you to make each and every item your own. Their designers/Customer service folks are SO easy to work with. I love my paper goods and everyone comments on how beautiful they are! Thank you!!"

New England Bluegrass at its Finest on the Clark's South Lawn July 19
For Immediate Release
July 05, 2005
Banjo Dan and the Mid-nite Plowboys continue the free summer band concert series at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute on Tuesday, July 19 at 6 p.m. One of New England's most exciting acoustic bands, Banjo Dan and the Mid-nite Plowboys, will perform original and traditional bluegrass music featuring old and new country songs, gospel quartets, blazing instrumental showpieces and finely crafted original numbers. As concerts are held outside on the south lawn, picnics, lawn chairs, and blankets are encouraged. On concert evenings, the galleries will be open until 6 p.m. Admission to the concerts is free.
Bluegrass music has grown tremendously in popularity fueled by the recent resurgence of authentic "roots" music in films such as "O Brother, Where Art Thou?". Vermont's Banjo Dan and the Mid-nite Plowboys have been in the forefront of this movement throughout their long career, which started in 1972. Their energy and drive, warmth and humor, continue to engage audiences wherever they play. Soaring harmonies, soulful load vocals and sparkling instrumental solos remain a hallmark of their performances.
The concert series concludes with Mark Erelli with the Spurs on July 26. In the event of rain, the concerts will be held in the auditorium.
The Clark is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. The galleries are open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in July and August (closed Mondays September through June). Admission June 1 through October 31 is $10 for adults, free for children 18 and under, members, and students with valid ID. Admission is free November through May. For more information, call 413-458-2303 or visit www.clarkart.edu.
